How often do you charge your phone?

Although I could, based upon what he's done, I have been quite lenient with him thus far, and have not pressed any...

@chasingThursday Glad I gave you a laugh.

@SomeMichGuy thanks :)
Usually I put it on charge once a day while I’m watching tv to let it charge to about 95 percent. I then put it on charge again in the early hours of the morning if I wake up, as I listen to sleep sounds on YouTube which sometimes drains a lot of battery.

@Gingerbreadspice I thought about getting one of those sleep sounds apps on my phone but then I realized it would probably drain my battery like crazy
@chasingThursday Apps most definitely use a lot of battery. Tiktok live is the worst.

I've never really thought about it, but probably about once or twice a week, as necessary.

Like anything else I have that is rechargeable, I don't leave it on charge overnight or when I am out, but so I can keep an eye on it and switch the charger off reasonably promptly.
Whenever I don't use it, it's not full, and I have a charger within reach.
At least once a day. Sometimes twice a day. I use my phone for work so it gets a lot of use.

@Malai is that like once a week? 😜

@Malai You do? The question was actually charge, not change, but never mind! :-)

@HumanEarth how’s that working for ya?
HumanEarth · 56-60, F
No issues

Every night while I sleep.

@QueenOfTheNerds I charge it when it gets low and that’s about every other day and it’s at random times lol. I always heard you shouldn’t charge it until the battery is dead
ArishMell · 70-79, M
@chasingThursday That was the case with certain type of cell, especially Ni-Cd ones, but I don't think the ones now used in 'phones need that.

I am not sure myself, but it a question like that is best asked of a phone or electronics supplier, or examining the instructions (if any are published!), though rather than using "always heard".
ArishMell · 70-79, M
@QueenOfTheNerds Not "everyone", and anyway that's a not a reason.

Why waste electricity by keeping anything on charge for several hours beyond necessary? (Same with so-called "stand-by" or "sleep" settings on computers and TVs.)

maybe once overnight
chasingThursday · 36-40, M
@Frostcloud every night?
Frostcloud · F
